Print Recipe

A vibrant and fresh strawberry açaí smoothie that tastes just like the café version, made easily at home with simple ingredients and a fizzy finish.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup (150 g) frozen strawberries
  • 2 tablespoons (14 g) açaí powder
  • 1 cup (240 ml) cold water (can substitute with coconut water)
  • 2 tablespoons (30 ml) fresh lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon (15 ml) honey or maple syrup (optional)
  • 1/2 cup (120 ml) sparkling water
  • 1/2 cup (120 ml) ice cubes (optional)
  • Splash of almond milk (optional for dairy-free creaminess)

Instructions

  1. Measure 1 cup (150 g) of frozen strawberries and set aside. Squeeze 2 tablespoons (30 ml) of fresh lemon juice. Have honey or maple syrup ready if using.
  2. Add frozen strawberries, 2 tablespoons (14 g) açaí powder, 1 cup (240 ml) cold water, lemon juice, and honey or maple syrup (if using) into a blender.
  3. Blend on high for 45-60 seconds until smooth and creamy with no large chunks. Add a splash more water if too thick.
  4. If desired, add 1/2 cup (120 ml) ice cubes and pulse a few times to crush without watering down the smoothie.
  5. Pour the blended mixture into a glass, leaving room for 1/2 cup (120 ml) sparkling water. Stir gently with a spoon or straw to mix without losing fizz.
  6. Taste and adjust sweetness or tanginess by adding a little more honey/maple syrup or lemon juice if needed.
  7. Serve immediately for a crisp, refreshing texture and bubbly finish.

Notes

Use frozen strawberries to keep the smoothie thick and cold without watering it down. Add sparkling water last and stir gently to preserve fizz. Fresh lemon juice is preferred over bottled for brightness. Blend açaí powder with water first if clumpy. Can substitute sweeteners with agave or stevia for vegan or lower sugar options.
